Stuart Seldowitz, former Deputy Director of the US State Department's Office for Israel and Palestinian Affairs from 1999 - 2003, filmed on multiple occasions harassing a food seller in Manhattan.

How do these people get promoted to positions of authority?

I’m impressed by the level of restraint that gentleman showed here. If he’d have been calling me a terrorist he’d have had the hot sauce squirted right in his eyes. That poor chap just trying to earn an honest living selling food. I’m furious for him.

Same here.

He probably won't be though will he?

I wonder if he made his contempt for Palestinians obvious when he was working for the Office of Israel and Palestinian Affairs? And how many of his colleagues shared his views?

The continued harassment when he's asked to leave is really unpleasant to see.

I honestly wish I studied law at uni. I would have contacted the man being abused and represented him pro bono just to have the satisfaction of dragging the abuser's sorry self through the courts.

He's been trending for 24 hours on Social media. There are multiple videos, it was a sustained campaign of harassment and racist abuse.

He worked in the Obama administration as an advisor on the middle east (ever wonder why no progress on a 2 state solution?).

Ps. There has been an influx of posters asking why are you doing this, what's posting online going to do etc? Well the 300 thousand plus impressions on twitter alone mean that this man employer's from years ago are issuing statements of condemnation, the police have to act and the men he abused can work.

What an unspeakably nasty piece of shit that individual is. The fact that he once held such a prominent position in the US government makes me think that he must surely be suffering from dementia or similar to behave with such blatant hostility and appalling racism to the food seller.

Has this been widely circulated in the US? Has the media there picked up on it?

Disgusting monster. Smiling like a psychopath. I hope he'll be prosecuted.
